Hi Chris,

long time I wanted to ask this: why do we use the vault rather than
the boost sandbox? Wouldn't the latter make our lives much easier?
After all, once a library is finalized we could even delete it from
there, if pollution is a problem, but at least we would have a clear
view of the changes and a straightforward way to get the latest
version without having to remember that a new one was announced on the
list :-)
